ORIGINAL STORY (January 9, 2023): Olivia Rodrigo is teasing new music.
The musician took to social media to share a clip of herself jamming out to what appears to be a song in the making. “Working on so many new songs,” she wrote in an Instagram Story. “I’m excited to show you! Thank you for everything.”
The temporary video on her Story also features producer Dan Nigro — the mastermind behind Rodrigo’s debut album, Sour, which was released in May 2021. The pair were listening to a piano melody, teasing what’s to come.
Last February, Rodrigo shared some info on what to expect from her sophomore album.
“I have a title for my next album and a few songs,” she told Billboard at the time. “It’s really exciting to think about the next world that’s coming up for me. I just love writing songs. I’m trying not to put too much pressure on myself. [I want to] just sort of explore and have fun right now.”
Stay tuned for more updates on Rodrigo’s upcoming music.
